Thanks.
But does it work? According to your earlier post, you don't even have a /config/AppleFileServer directory in NetInfo. As such, I would just wonder if it works. There are several options in that AFS directory in NetInfo, so my guess is that something's not working the way it should be. But I just wonder if you can connect to it. Also, you could download SharePoints -- it's a Preferences Pane that supposedly lets you control the AFS server in OS X... but I never needed it -- and never got it to work.
